Chapter 18: Sworn Sisters
When Night Star was led inside, she suddenly felt that the purple-haired girl beside her seemed familiar.
It felt like she had seen her somewhere before.
But before she could recall where, Kaguya had already taken her to the living room.
There were quite a few people waiting here.
When Night Star saw that Mo Rabbit was safe and sound, she finally let out a breath.
It’s good that nothing happened.
Night Star didn’t want the Rising Sun Theater Group to lose such a perfect scapegoat in Mo Rabbit.
If something happened to Mo Rabbit, who would they find to torment?
After confirming that Mo Rabbit was fine, Night Star looked around at the other people present.
The familiar faces triggered her memories, helping her recall where she had encountered these people before.
” shocking! It’s Nightfall!”
Hearing this, everyone present was somewhat surprised.
First, there was Mo Rabbit.
She had barely managed to confirm the identity and face of the members of 【Zero-Style Nightfall】, only for Night Star to know this before her?
How ridiculous is this?
Logically speaking, Night Lan should have been holed up in the theater all this time.
How could she possibly know someone as top-tier as an Ability User?
Maybe she got it all wrong?
Mo Rabbit suddenly began to doubt her importance.
So, she wasn’t even the first to get intel on this stuff.
And Night Sky and the others were also puzzled.
They hadn’t expected this cute hetero-lolis from another world to actually recognize them.
This was definitely unexpected.
Kaguya smiled and asked.
“Do you know us?”
Night Star nodded nervously.
“Yeah, I’ve seen your dance videos online; I really love them. It’s very surprising to meet you in real life.”
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood.
So, it was that dance video.
Thinking back, Kaguya and the others hadn’t wanted to upload that video in the first place.
It was originally just a playful result between Night Sky and them.
They didn’t want to be famous.
But, Night Sky suddenly uploaded it on a whim.
This led their stage videos to become wildly popular online, starting quite a buzz.
All they could do was accept reality and move on from it.
Let the online community discuss however they please, as long as it doesn’t affect their lives.
Mo Rabbit’s cheeks twitched slightly.
She had no idea there was information about [Zero-Style Nightfall] online.
This was so absurd!
She thought such an S-class Ability User team would be very secretive.
But there were apparently dance videos that could confirm identities?
If it were that easy, why would Mo Rabbit risk intruding here?
With enough initial identification data, collecting information on [Zero-Style Nightfall] members bit by bit in places like Flying Wing Academy and various Guardian bases could be done.
Once enough preparation was made, negotiations would be much more reassuring.
Inevitably, she was bound by common sense.
Night Star recognized a member of [Zero-Style Nightfall] purely by luck.
Mo Rabbit’s divination couldn’t pinpoint any info—they had to brute-force and still failed.
Then, Night Star suddenly caught sight of the black-haired loli with the highest presence.
Unlike her own, Night Lan, this loli had an even more unique aura.
It was like a depressed loli who didn’t want to stand up ever again but achieved the ultimate freedom of loafing around!
“Loli Sky?”
Night Sky nodded.
“Um-hm! That’s me~ You probably know me through dance videos too, right? Aren’t I incredibly adorable?”
“Mm…”
Night Star hesitated.
“In fact, no—it was in a video, kind of like a declaration of being into lolis. You said something really… cool. That impression stuck with me, so I recognized you initially.”
Night Sky’s expression froze, a hint of red creeping onto her face, as if recalling something awful from her past.
“Ahh! Don’t bring that up! That pure, horrible history is so embarrassing! I wish I could go back in time and cut off that version of myself!”
Seeing Night Sky’s reaction, Night Star relaxed.
That was a normal reaction.
If Night Sky found that impressive, it would be weird.
Since she called it pure, bad history, “Loli Control Declaration” must’ve been said in the heat of emotion.
Looking at Night Sky’s regret oozing out right now, Night Star felt compelled to console her.
If she left behind a level of history like that, and had numerous netizens spreading it like gospel, she’d use the Wish Princess to change such a terrible outcome!
Night Star started consoling her.
“Well, actually, your image as Loli Sky is deeply ingrained. Many people remember you. Compared to those dull folks, this is excellent development.”
Night Sky instantly gave Night Star an unhappy look.
“Nonsense! It’s easy to say when you haven’t endured one. Go make a dark history yourself, and then we’ll talk.”
Night Star quickly backed down, shaking her head hard.
“No, actually… someone with my kind of low presence is better off…”
She was joking.
Only someone with a mental breakdown would leave such embarrassing dark history behind.
It couldn’t possibly be a good scenario.
Night Sky puffed up her cheeks, feigning annoyance.
“No, I’m mad. Unless you take off that mask, I won’t forgive your audacity.”
No need to be upset.
Night Sky was a laid-back person, and naturally wouldn’t easily get annoyed at any loli because of her loli-attraction attributes. Mostly, it was just playful.
For instance, today.
Though she’s seen Night Star’s face before recently, seeing her close-up and wearing that obnoxious mask was too standoffish!
Aren’t you supposed to show off your cuteness more?
What’s the point of hiding?
Night Sky strongly condemned.
“I’m sorry!”
Night Star swiftly admitted her mistake.
Bringing up dark history in front of someone is definitely impolite.
As for Night Sky’s request, Night Star didn’t object at all.
Her identity as an Audience Performer was a secret.
True.
But that was in the old world.
In this new world, hidden appearances meant little since they’d eventually part ways anyway.
Most importantly: Night Star liked Night Sky.
That’s more than enough!
Where else can you find such a decent loli who is into fellow lolis?
Now, meeting her, it’s absolutely worth getting to know.
Is social anxiety really a problem?
Seeing Night Star’s mask disappear, Night Sky gave a satisfied smile.
“Much better~”
Night Sky walked up to Night Star and extended her hand.
“So, allow me to introduce myself. I’m Night Sky, lover of lazing around, loli-attracted, nice to meet you.”
Night Star blinked, taking hold of Night Sky’s offered hand.
“I’m Night Star, also fond of malingering, a loli-aficionado, nice to meet you too.”
Night Sky’s eyes lit up.
“Fate! As long as you’re into lolis, we’re like sworn sisters! Come, let’s form a bond!”
“Whaaat?”
Sworn sisters?
Are they playing some fancy game?
Night Star had never seen such a thing before.
But surprisingly, she wasn’t repulsed; she actually wanted to go along with Night Sky.
It seemed like a lot of fun.
